I bought this great plywood chair at the local op shop for $10 - I and am rejuvenating it as part of project I am working on with a client. The chair will be used as the desk chair in a 10year old boys room.
After a sand, a couple of coats of paint and some personalisation - I have stenciled his initial on the front and back. A very funky chair for $15.00
Today reading the Sunday paper there was a feature on butterfly chairs from Temptation Design - these chairs retail for $545 each!!! ouch
Although the shape is a little different, they do look similar and I think my $15 upcycled chairs is a knock out!
WOW Vicki, what a huge difference from start to finish. I wish I had the eye to pick out bargains like that and see what they can possibly finish up like. What a huge savings for your client and a much more personalised chair in the end too!!! I can't wait to see what you do next....
